Opinion

What's next for Oracion, Emata and Garduce?

HAVE BAT WILL STRIKE - Juanito V. Jabat   -
One well-known radioman asked Leo Oracion what made him climb to the top of Mt. Everest. Didn't this radioman know that mountaineers climb mountains because they're there?

So what's next for Leo Oracion, Pastor Emata and Romeo Garduce? Endorsements of products at fees as high as Mt. Everest. Something the BIR would be busy watching.

Debbie Duraliza, our opinion editor, sent me something I could use for this morning's column to make your day. It's a piece by Dave Barry who listed down 16 things that took him 50 years to learn. Let me share this with you.
* * *
1.

Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

2.

If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be "meetings."

3.

There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

4.

People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.

5.

You should not confuse your career with your life.
* * *
6.

Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.

7.

Never lick a steak knife.

8.

The most destructive force in the universe is gossip.

9.

You will never find anybody who can give you a clear and compelling reason why we observe daylight saving time.

10.

You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests that you think she's pregnant unless you can see an actual baby emerging from her at that moment.
* * *
There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people to make a big deal about your birthday. That time is age eleven.

12.

The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that, deep down inside, we all believe that we are above average drivers.

13.

A person, who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter, is not a nice person. (This is very important. Pay attention. It never fails.)

14.

Your friends love you anyway.

15.

Never be afraid to try something new. Remember that a lone amateur built the Ark. A large group of professionals built the Titanic.

FINAL Thought for the day: Men are like fine wine. They start out as grapes, and it's up to women to stomp the crap out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.
